The Handoff was really helpful in iOS 11

Handoff is a great technology. When the iPhone, iPad and Mac are within range of a wireless network device, they can automatically “pass” the user from one device to another. Thus a web page or document viewed on a single device, you can quickly access on the other. So you can pass a location on a map from your Mac to iPhone or YouTube page in Safari from iPhone to iPad. Really practical. And with the release of iOS 11 was also convenient.

In iOS 10 and earlier versions of a submitted application is displayed on the devices in two places. One of them is the lock screen. Given that the sending of data often occurs on a locked device, it is quite justified.

But the app icon is very small, and most users just don’t understand how to use it. The icon you need to pull up, and clicking on it brings no results. Another place is the menu multi-tasking, which is usually nobody even remembers.

11 in the iOS app appears directly in the right side dock bar iPad (Mac shown on the left). It is marked with an icon of a smartphone, tablet or PC depending on which device the data is received. To run application simply by pressing.

Even in early beta versions for developers this feature works without problems. To enable Handoff in Settings > General > Handoff.
